Lycopene reduces ovarian tumor growth and intraperitoneal metastatic load
Mutagens like oxidants cause lesions in the DNA of ovarian and fallopian tube epithelial cells, resulting in neoplastic transformation. Reduced exposure of surface epithelia to oxidative stress may prevent the onset or reduce the growth of ovarian cancer.

Multiple metabolic engineering of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for the production of lycopene
Lycopene is a high‐value‐added tetraterpenoid, which is widely used in cosmetics, medicine, food, and dietary supplements. The intracellular mevalonate pathway of Saccharomyces cerevisiae provides natural precursors for terpenoid product synthesis, so it

Rapid determination of lycopene content and fruit grading in tomatoes using a smart device camera
Lycopene is one of the most important functional components produced in tomatoes. Traditional methods for determining lycopene content usually rely on destructive sampling followed by chemical analysis.

The antioxidant properties of lycopene and oxygenated lycopene derivatives
There is a growing interest in investigating the ability of carotenoids to act as cancer-preventive food components. A proposed mechanism of action for the protective effect of carotenoids against cancer is based on their antioxidant capability. Lycopene

Sedimentary lycopane/n‐C31 ratio as a proxy for bottom water hypoxia in coastal ocean
Abstract Bottom‐water hypoxia on continental shelves is intensifying under climate change and eutrophication, yet long‐term records remain scarce. Here we show that the sedimentary lycopane/n‐C31 ratio reliably records bottom‐water oxygenation in the seasonally hypoxic Yangtze River Estuary.

Effects of lycopene supplementation on plasma and tissue lycopene levels in various rodent strains
Lycopene has been shown to have various biologic effects, and rats and mice are often used for elucidating its in vivo effects and mechanisms. Here, we compared plasma and tissue lycopene levels in F344 rats, BALB/c mice, nude mice, and gerbils by oral ...
